  • IT Services & Staffing – Q4 2017 Bhavin Patel
    Market Perspective Public Market Performance Recent IT Services M&A Activity Recent Staffing M&A Activity IT Services & Staffing – Q4 2017 2017: IT Services & Staffing M&A Year in Review Undoubtedly, the IT Services industry is continuing to undergo massive transformation as the digital revolution continues its siege. As we reflect on M&A activity in 2017, here are a few of the deals we found to be extremely interesting – because of either the market convergence they represent, the sheer impact they have, or the growing interest from the private equity community they demonstrate. Q1 2017 › Proviso Capital acquired Kerr Consulting (01/17/2017) › Veritas Capital acquired Harris Corp’s Government IT Services business (01/27/2017) Bhavin Patel › Deloitte acquired Day1 Solutions (03/27/2017) Director Q2 2017 Email Bhavin › KPMG acquired ToMont Solutions (05/01/2017) › The Hackett Group acquired Jibe Consulting (05/09/2017) › Rackspace acquired TriCore Solutions (05/25/2017) › Perficient acquired Clarity Consulting (06/23/2017) Q3 2017 › H.I.G. Capital acquired NCI (07/03/2017) › DXC Technology acquired Tribridge (07/05/2017) › Hewlett Packard Enterprise acquired Cloud Technology Partners (09/05/2017) › Capgemini acquired Lyons Consulting Group (09/20/2017) Q4 2017 › Office Depot acquired CompuCom (10/03/2017) › ADT acquired Datashield (11/14/2017) › CGI acquired Paragon (12/07/2017) Looking ahead, we expect another busy year in the IT Services industry. We’re excited to see what 2018 has to offer and what M&A themes play out as we expect as the year ensues. We would wager that some of the hottest assets will be: specialty cloud services providers, digital transformation experts, big data scientists, and consultancies that align technology with business strategy.
